I was born in a country too small to fit in
Its rivers and fjords are running through my mind
It sent me off floating and carried me through my youth
But fed me distrust and insecurities
And it’s streets of eternal summer no longer wear my name
I wore many faces, some fell, some got stuck
Now, I have to look close to recognize myself
But may my deeds be remembered by the people I loved
And all my mistakes all serve to educate
Don't judge me on all my answers
But on how I found them
How tall can you grow without tearing off your roots
And stand without breaking in the wind?
Sometimes the old must die to leave room for the new
May I grow into myself and float on
But remember the place I came from
I've chosen battles and let chances slip by
And had many days soiled in compromise
But also days full of music were the tunes were all mine
Now, All of my songs are for everyone to take
Let my time leave scars and wrinkles
And memories worth losing
May my time not be wasted prolonging my days
And may the time I have left leave me feeling loved
I found an island with roots deep in the ground
And we rode off the storms in our intertwining rivers
Though, it’s too rarely that I tell you
It’s with you my heart belongs
How far could you fall without falling apart?
How well would you walk on through the fire?
How hard would you fight for things already lost?
Life's not about the destinations we reach
But the journeys we take in between
(Solo)
May my footprints be shallow on the ground that I’ve walked
But deep in the minds of everyone I’ve known
I hope there will be laughter and song when I die
In room full of friends all celebrating life
Let our deaths be quick and painless
And in the right order
How far could you fall without falling apart?
How well would you walk on through the fire?
How hard would you fight for things already lost?
I don't count on my life to be perfect at all
But I hope it’ll worth all its flaws
I hope you'll dance till you drop
Sing back at the madness
Let the tune lift you up
Carry you on so you keep on smiling
I hope you'll dance till you drop
Punch holes through the sadness
Give all you’ve got
When shadows fall, burn like a fire
Burn like a fire
(solo)
I hope you'll dance till you drop
Bring light to the darkness
But when the sun comes back up
Take a brief break to hear the silence
Its rivers and fjords are running through my mind
It sent me off floating and carried me through my youth
But fed me distrust and insecurities
And it’s streets of eternal summer no longer wear my name
I wore many faces, some fell, some got stuck
Now, I have to look close to recognize myself
But may my deeds be remembered by the people I loved
And all my mistakes all serve to educate
Don't judge me on all my answers
But on how I found them
How tall can you grow without tearing off your roots
And stand without breaking in the wind?
Sometimes the old must die to leave room for the new
May I grow into myself and float on
But remember the place I came from
I've chosen battles and let chances slip by
And had many days soiled in compromise
But also days full of music were the tunes were all mine
Now, All of my songs are for everyone to take

And may the time I have left leave me feeling loved
